Added details about OIF
I'm going to add some stuff that has been taken out, hopefully writing it in a more encyclopedic tone. I'll add some stuff about the training involved before the unit left for their first and second OIF deployment, and some more details concerning the wounded marine from 2004. Rhetth (talk) 02:27, 3 January 2008 (UTC) Thanks for your thoughts, and I appreciate you taking the time to respond. Here are some reasons why I think this information would be a good addition to this article: These are my reasons for including this information. What do you think? Rhetth (talk) 01:48, 16 January 2008 (UTC)
 * It is too much information. If anything think about starting an article on pre-deployment training for Marine units heading over to Iraq.  That way almost every battalion could have an article linked to it.   To put it in an individual battalion's page is too much information.  Then we would be looking at the same for every conflict and the page would be too long and unreadable.  The operational history of the unit is sufficient.  As for the casualty...again too much inofrmation.  A number per deployment is sufficient.  Are we going to list the individual circumstances for every 1/1 Marine injured or killed at Peleliu? Probably not an option so we shouldn't be listing 1 WIA here either.--Looper5920 (talk) 10:12, 3 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Regarding too much information: I agree that, if every unit page includes the same level of detail, then yes, this would be too much information.  But what I'm proposing is that we include information that is important relative to this unit.  That only one Marine was injured during the 2nd OIF deployment is a notable event.  If 200 were injured, then detailing every one would not be important, it would be more appropriate to describe in broad strokes what happened, which other unit wikipedia pages have done (see the Army's 3ACR).  In addition, considering the history of the unit, this injury represents a part of that history as a watermark for the volitility during the deployment.  In addition, the wikipedia page is a living thing, and should change according the individualities of each topic.  What is notable in one page is not necessarily notable in another, I believe.
 * Regarding predeployment information: If you started a page detailing predeployment training, it would most likely include how different units trained.  For instance, a mountain division would train differently than an airborne one.  In the case of 1/1, part of the notability of the predeployment training information is how the commanders made the decision of how to train.  They received real-time information about events in Iraq and Afganistan and adapted their predeployment training to the particularities of what training opportunities were afforded them.  Not all units train the same way, and even if they wanted to, physical, time, and resource constraints would not allow it.  This individuality makes the predeployment training information unique and notable.
 * Since there are no objections, I'm going to reinstate the information and organization from |this previous page, including sections for specific OIF tours, training, and specifics to certain missions. If you're thinking of just reverting everything back to the original because you think it's not notable or it's uncited, please be bold and lets discuss things first.

War Crimes
Shouldn't the war crimes done by this unit be included in the Vietnam War section? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.93.209.171 (talk) 19:20, 18 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Please enlighten us.--Looper5920 (talk) 00:17, 19 May 2008 (UTC)

Current News
I've added that 1/1 has been back a while. It is currently attached to the 13th MEU for its next deployment. Theres not a lot of references for this, except for the 13th MEU website itself, but there wasn't much other info last I checked. I'm currently a member of Bravo Company in 1/1, and I know the stuff has changed around for it.. (Such as no more Boat Companies and all) though there is nothing I can find to cite. Again, I'll be on the look out for stuffbut as of now, this pages is pretty out of touch with the current events. Gelston (talk) 01:39, 29 August 2008 (UTC)
